Such a big thing happened in the county town, and the people were panicked after receiving the news. Although everyone often called the corrupt officials bastards on weekdays, they suddenly said that the people in the county government were dead and had the illusion that the adults at home were gone.

This is probably the case for the people, so all sentient beings suffer.

And it was at this time that Prince Yu did something crazy. If this matter was reported to the court and his Majesty, he might be directly arrested by the people of the Internal Affairs Department and were arrested in the heavenly prison. It is probably a crime that no one pleads for mercy.

All the officials in the front-line counties died, and Prince Yu appointed several entourages in his mansion as county officials in the front-line counties. If such a thing was spread, it would be a death sentence when the Great Chu was still stable.

This is not his fiefdom, and he has no right to appoint and remove officials.

But Prince Yu was not testing the court, but... Prince Wu.

He wanted to see what his brother would think and what he would do after he learned about this matter. As long as Prince Wu finally tolerate this matter, Prince Yu's steps would take a bigger step.

He had long wanted to get bigger, but at the critical moment, Prince Wu came, which forced him to restrain himself.

Of course, Xiahou Zhuo understood what his father meant. In fact, he knew from a long time ago that his father was not as idle as he seemed on the surface.

And this is also one of the reasons why Xiahou Zhuoxiang wanted to hide.

"Let's go."

Xiahou Zhuo looked at Li Dioudiu and said, "I ate too much meat, go out for a walk to digest food, see if there is any good things in the city to buy some, and then we will go back to the camp."

Li Dioudi knew that he didn't want to contact his father more, so he nodded and said, "Okay, go around and eat a little too much."

Xiahou Zhuo said: "Be honest."

Li Dioudiu: "I really missed some food..."

The three of them left the county government and walked aimlessly along the street. Although the people were shocked that such a big case had happened, they still had to live. Not long after the sun rose, the shops on the street gradually opened, and there were more and more small vendors who were traveling around the streets to make a living.

Li Diudiu and the others walked to a corner where someone set up a stall to sell noodles. Xiahou Zhuo asked Li Diudiu if he wanted to eat more. Li Diudiu said, "What do you think of me? Am I a stew?"

Xiahou Zhuo said yes.

You said it was a coincidence that Li Dioudi just looked at the noodle stall and saw that yesterday he met the businessman selling spear falcon sitting there eating noodles. A bowl of plain noodles tasted light, and the businessman looked a little sad.

The little spear falcon squatted in the cage and his head was drooping, probably about to starve to death.

Li Dioudi winked at Xiahou Zhuo. A bad guy like Xiahou Zhuo immediately reacted, nodded, and said deliberately loudly: "I didn't see anything fun when I wandered around yesterday. Let's go around today. If there is nothing interesting, let's leave."

Li Dioudiu said: "After turning for so long, the only thing that interested me a little is the young falcon yesterday. What a pity. I'm afraid I'll starve to death with that person."

The long-browed Taoist said as he walked, "Don't talk nonsense. Do you think that they can't afford to support them? Don't underestimate these hunters. They are actually not short of money, so you can't cut down yesterday. They are hunters. Can they still lack the young falcon to eat a bite of meat?"

Li Dioudiu said: "That's right, they are hunters and they have to get tired of eating meat all day long."

Xiahou Zhuo said: "I just have no chance with us."

The three of them walked past the merchant. The merchant stuffed his face into his mouth and looked at the three of them with a look of surprise, even forgot to swallow the face in their mouths.

He thought to himself, who are you three so scared?

However, if you don’t do this business, you will have almost no money for today’s meals, so you quickly got up and said, “Three distinguished guests, here, here, here, here.”

He smiled and said, "It's really fate."

Li Diudiu and the other three looked back and Li Diudiu spoke as representative: "Who are you?"

Xiahou Zhuoxin said this question was not good, and his acting skills were a bit exaggerated.

The merchant quickly said, "I just met yesterday. Didn't the three distinguished guests buy my young falcons? I didn't sell them yesterday, but I met them again this morning. It's a coincidence. This is the real fate. If I don't sell the young falcons to you cheaper, God will not agree."

Li Dioudiu said: "God doesn't care about this, what about eating? Then you eat, let's go for a walk."

The merchant took a few steps and caught up with him, saying with a smile: "For the sake of fate, the three distinguished guests will offer another price. I will also rush back to my hometown. I don't want to delay this too much. If you give a price, I will sell it to you."

Li Dioudi shook his head: "I can't afford it."

Xiahou Zhuo shook his head: "I don't want to come out."

The long-browed Taoist shook his head: "No interest."

One didn't want to come out and the other was not interested, so the businessman naturally reacted, ignored Xiahou Zhuo and Changmei Taoist, and kept smiling at Li Dioudi.

"The price yesterday was yesterday. Today's price must be different from yesterday. You can offer a price, and we will make a deal if it is right."

Li Dioudiu said: "I still offer the same price yesterday. Look at the vegetables sellers. The vegetables yesterday are fresh and not fresh today. So you have to sell them at a lower price. If you don't lower the price, you can't sell them. Your young falcon was not new yesterday. It looks wilted today. It seems that you are not newer than yesterday... I won't lower the price yesterday because you said that you are destined to be. Maybe I am really destined to be with this young falcon."

The merchant smiled bitterly and said, "Young Master, you can't even buy a big fat goose for one tael of silver now."

Li Dioudiu said: "If I could buy a big fat goose, why would I buy your young falcon? Isn't the big fat goose more fragrant?"

The merchant shook his head and sighed, "Forget it, it turns out that the young master didn't really want to buy it. No matter what he said, it would be impossible to sell it to you for a tael of silver. Even if he couldn't sell it and starve it to death, he could not sell it like this."

Li Dioudiu nodded: "Goodbye."

He gave Xiahou Zhuo a wink. Xiahou Zhuo coughed a few times and said, "Look at your stingyness, people say they have given you a cheaper price, but you should ask them how much they are asking for."

He looked at Xiahou Zhuo and asked, "Just say how much you can sell it."

The merchant hesitated for a while and replied, "Fifteen taels, no less."

Xiahou Zhuo looked at Li Dioudiu: "Look, I'm going to give you a 50% discount."

Li Dioudiu said: "What? The price is five taels?"

The businessman said anxiously: "Fifteen taels!"

Li Dioudiu said: "I know, I hear it clearly. You don't have to tell me so loudly that it is five liang. If it is five liang... it is still a bit high."

The Taoist Changmei said, "What's the taller? People say it's five liang, from twenty liang to five liang, the price is fifteen liang, and you are not satisfied?"

The businessman was anxious: "Fifteen taels! Not five taels!"

Li Dioudiu said: "Yes, the price is 15 taels, not 5 taels. I heard it clearly. You see, you are still anxious. Why are you so anxious and slapped?"

The merchant was stunned for a while, then turned around and walked back: "I'd better go eat my noodles. The three of them turned out to be fun."

Li Dioudiu smiled and said, "The deal is done, I'm so sorry, we just owe it..."

The merchant said without looking back: "I won't sell it if I don't sell it if I starve it to death."

Li Dioudiu said: "Fifteen taels."

The businessman turned around suddenly, and Li Dioudiu had already handed him the silver.

"We know how much this thing is worth, but it's really too small, and you haven't fed it much, so it's not certain whether you can support it. I give it to you fifteen taels, and I feel sorry for this little guy."

Li Dioudiu put the silver in the hands of the merchant and went over to lift the cage. The young falcon subconsciously shrank back a little, but it was too wilted and seemed to have no strength.

Li Dioudi walked away with a cage, and the long-browed Taoist sighed: "A prodigal child."

Li Dioudiu smiled and said, "This is the first luxury thing I bought in my life... I don't know why, but when I saw this little thing's eyes, I felt that it shouldn't be like this."

They walked to find a butcher who sold meat, bought some meat, and asked the butcher to help chop it up, and fed it to the young falcon bit by bit. The butcher who sold meat looked at it and shook his head and said, "This thing is too small and cannot be raised by people. You guys are probably cheated when you buy this."

Li Dioudiu smiled but said nothing, but the young falcon looked at the butcher as if he understood it. Li Dioudiudiu said, "Did you see it? Are you glaring at you?"

I didn't dare to feed it for the first time, so I almost stopped and fed some water. After a while, the young falcon looked a little more energetic.

The three of them were wandering around the street for a while. Xiahouzhuo bought some skins and said that they would go back to make a new cloak for their mother, and wear it during the Chinese New Year. They also bought a lot of dried fruits from mountain products, which were also planned to go back and give to their mother.

The three of them got on the carriage and returned to the camp. This place was not very pleasing and they were no longer interested in staying for more.

On the carriage, Li Dioudi took out an exquisite small wine pot from his cuff like a magical trick and handed it to his master: "It's the New Year soon, I'll give you a little toy."

The Taoist Changmei was confused. He didn't notice when Li Dioudi bought it. To be honest, when Xiahou Zhuo bought the gift for his mother, the Taoist Changmei was indeed a little envious and emotional.

But of course he didn't blame Li Diuduo, he was just thinking that Xiahou Zhuo was really a filial son.

"You are greedy for wine, and this pot is small, just right. You must not exceed the amount of this pot of wine in the future."

Li Dioudiu put the wine pot on his master's hand, leaned back, and said to himself: "At such an old age, it's not worry-free at all."

The master looked at the wine pot, then looked at Li Dioudiu, holding the wine pot with both hands, and rubbing the wine pot with his fingers constantly.

“And it’s…”

Li Dioudiu said: "Most of the money I have earned these days has been exchanged for silver notes. Last night you fell asleep, and I put it in your pocket of clothes. You should drink less wine. Just buy some good wine. Don't buy things with one pot of wine and half a pot of water. Don't eat so casually. A steamed bun and a pot of water are a meal. Do you think I can't afford to support you? Who do you look down on me?"

The long-browed Taoist raised his hand and rubbed his nose, and laughed: "The mouth is so smelly."

Li Dioudi squinted his eyes and said, "It's up to you."

The long-browed Taoist smiled even more smoothly.

Xiahou Zhuo looked at the old and the young, and then smiled foolishly. For some reason, he just laughed, and he was so stupid that he didn't know it.
